Most of Bond’s ties in the Brosnan years are quiet. This one is not. A rich golden ground with a small blue geometric motif, it is the loudest tie in Tomorrow Never Dies that still manages good manners. The Turnbull & Asser Tomorrow Never Dies diamond tie is sold today under the maker’s Bond collection, and it is a useful way to bring a little colour into a dark suit.

In the film

Turnbull & Asser says it designed the tie especially for James Bond in Tomorrow Never Dies. Our catalogue records it with the cream Hamburg shirt outfit and in a promotional image with the Brioni suit, and one source places it in London and Hamburg. We have not seen every scene it appears in, so we describe it as the second Turnbull & Asser tie of the film rather than tie it to one moment.

The details

Gold with blue. The maker describes a rich golden ground and a precise geometric motif in bright blue. The pattern is small, so from a metre away it reads as a warm tone rather than a design.

The weave. The tie is 100% silk, woven at an English silk mill. The surface has texture and depth rather than a flat print.

Self-tipped and slip-stitched. Each tie has a self-tipped blade and slip-stitching along its length, which lets it sit comfortably on the neck and recover after a day’s wear.

Made in England. The maker designs its ties in-house and makes them in its English workrooms.

9.5cm wide. A conventional business width that suits a standard suit lapel and a standard shirt collar.

Wearing it now

This is a tie for a dark suit and a plain white or pale blue shirt. Navy is the safest partner for the gold and blue; charcoal gives a more severe contrast. Keep everything else quiet: no pocket square in a competing pattern, and a plain leather belt and shoes. If you only own one bright tie, this is a good candidate for it.

Occasion. It is a dinner or meeting tie rather than a funeral or interview tie. We would wear it when the day calls for a little warmth.

Care. Specialist dry clean only. Do not machine wash, bleach or tumble dry.

Price. The maker lists it at US$415 in its James Bond collection at the time of writing in October 2026.
